Brown Sugar Cinnamon Applesauce
Created by Rori Trovato
Red apple skins impart a rosy blush to this homey brown sugar cinnamon applesauce.
Ingredients:
Serves 4
- 6 red apples , such as McIntosh or Red Delicious
-
1/4 cup apple juice
-
1 stick cinnamon
-
2 tablespoons firmly packed light brown sugar
-
Pinch of salt
Cut apples into quarters; do not remove skin or seeds. Place in a 4-quart saucepan, along with apple juice and cinnamon stick. Bring to a boil over high heat, then cover and reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until apples are very tender, 10 to 15 minutes.
Stir in sugar and salt and continue cooking until sugar dissolves. Discard cinnamon stick.
Press apple mixture through a sieve or food mill set over a large bowl; discard skin and seeds. Add more sugar, if desired. Serve warm.
